Eto'o recently left many wagging tongues after he revealed that he was once broke. He was not born with a silver spoon like some of his counterparts, the likes of the Ayew brothers from Ghana.

Eto'o revealed how he rose from grass to grace and he attributed his successful journey to his loving wife.

"I met my wife when I was still an amateur footballer in France. FC Nantes refused to take me but my wife always believed in me. I had my little Camer accent car and she was responsible for it. She owned a Barbering Saloon in Nantes. Today she is the wife of the Richest football player on the African continent and I'm married to the most patient woman in the world. Enough!

Moral: When you make it together with your partner, you've a story to write together. Look into the future not now," Eto'o posted accompanied by a grid containing photos of himself and his spouse before fame and money. 

The former Barcelona, Chelsea and Cameroon national team player's message has inspired many and men have called upon women to emulate Eto'o's wife.

Here are some of the comments;

Karen: This is good. But I pray God gives women the patient to wait for a good man who'll appreciate the fact that she believed in him, waited for him.

But the truth is, most women no longer trust men who are trying to make it to the top, all because some of those men don't turn around to appreciate women that stood on their side during trying times.

Ezekiel: This is an interesting life story. Hustle together and enjoy the fruits of your labor together.

Helen: Thank God you still love her even though she is now older.

Patience: It is good to be patient but sometimes is not all that easy especially we ladies

Aderemi: What a sweet story and unfailing memory of the struggling and uncertain years back! This is a lovely story of what good and great things awaits us tomorrow if only we can persevere, be patient, and prayerful to God.

Faith: Not all men stay back after making it, once they make it that's when they notice the woman's flaws and the next thing they can't go on. It takes a good man with a good heart to remember how d story began... I'm talking from experience
